COMMENTS
Limiting ratio of areas in the disk-covering problem.
From Daniel Forgues, May 26 2010: (Start)
Consider: A060544 (Centered 9-gonal numbers), starting with a(1)=1, P_c(9, n), n >= 1. Every third triangular number, starting with a(1)=1, P(3, 3n-2), n >= 1. Then:
1/(Sum_{n=0..infinity} 1/binomial(3n+2,2)) = 1/(Sum_{n=1..infinity} 1/binomial(3n-1,2)) = 1/(Sum_{n=1..infinity} 1/P_c(9,n)) = 1/(Sum_{n=1..infinity} 1/P(3,3n-2)) = 1/(Sum_{n=1..infinity} 1/A060544(n)) = this constant. (End)
